10 | Jack Grealish - 2024/25

[Trickyblues]

Many got drunk, Grealish was something else. Nobody would raise the issue if he were professional in maintaining his fitness after that. He was in bad form for months last season, and came to life for several weeks before losing form again.

We need him in the next two months. Wouldn't be surprised if he moved to another club in January. If he is fit and plays well, then Pep might keep him. Wouldn't hold my breath, though.

or maybe you just didn’t see other players drunk like that on social media? Doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. But please, do get over it. It’s been 18 months.

Ah so you’re just gonna ignore the injuries he had last season and his house getting robbed? No, he wasn’t great last season but there’s a reason. You have no idea what Pep wants to do with him in January. Hugo Viana might love him and extend his contract. You have no idea.

I am far from Grealish's biggest fan but that comment is so wrong.

Might be wrong indeed. But I'd question his professionalism. Pep was livid yesterday.

Let's hope Grealish proves me wrong after he returns and hits a rich vein of form.

I watched Pep and saw he was utterly annoyed. That's enough for me to get Grealish must have behaved like an idiot.

 

[Trickyblues]

Again wrong and I know it's another argument but why is Carslet picking any players, what are we paying Tommy T to do?

Agree, no idea why any injured player is being picked but they usually meet up with the squad then drop out and go back to their club. May or may not happen with jack.
Tuchel doesn’t start till Jan

You brought up Grealish getting too drunk after the treble. When was Pep “utterly annoyed” about that?

You’d question a man’s professionalism who left his baby in London a couple hours after she was born to go play against Newcastle?

That's too simplistic. Cancelo was hurt by robbers and played the next day at Arsenal. But later he behaved unprofessionally and was sold.

Ok and? People react differently to these situations?

Getting drunk after winning the treble = sell him.

Playing at Newcastle hours after his wife gave birth = too simplistic.

Hmm.

 

[Macca77macca]

I don’t get all this Grealish obsessing.

Not enough is made of what he brings to the squad, he is clearly an important personality in both City and Eng squads.

We play much better when he is fit and in the team. Much better. A bit more recognition of this might be helpful.

At the end of the day he is back training, why shouldn’t he continue that with England?

I don’t get the whining.
